Effects of Equation Pro (22.5% Famoxadone + 30% Cymoxanil), a fungicide widely used on tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) grown in greenhouses in Turkey against Phytopthora infestans and Alternaria solani, were studied on the morphology and fertility of tomato pollens. The fungicide was applied to tomatoes grown in pots in a greenhouse at recommended dosage (0.4 g/l water) and double the recommended dosage (0.8 g/l water). At the recommended dosage of Equation Pro, pollens were affected but at double the recommended dose, fertility is decreased to 41% with morphological deformity and thinner wall layers.

Two disease forecasting systems - FAST, Pennsylvania State University and CUFAST, Cornell University - were used to generate spray schedules for controlling Alternaria solani Ell. and Mart. on `Celebrity' tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) at The Rutgers Snyder Research and Extension Farm in Northwest New Jersey. Disease control was compared to that obtained following standard weekly spray schedules. Chlorothalonil, 1.5 lb/A, was used for disease control for all treatments. Disease ratings of the FAST and CUFAST plots were significantly lower than that of the unsprayed control and were not significantly different from the plots sprayed according to standard spray schedules. A total of 10 fungicide applications were made following FAST recommendations; 7 applications were made following CUFAST recommendations; 13-15 applications were made following standard recommended schedules. Using CUFAST resulted in an estimated $200 per acre savings in spray costs. Chemical name used: tetrachloroisophtalonitrile (chlorothalonil).
